NOTHGARD Malady X

It´s been a while since I heard any of Nothgards previous albums, but I remember them as good but nothing special. Now they are back with their fourth studio album entitled ´Malady X´, after having signed a multi album deal with Metal Blade Records earlier this year. The style is pretty much the same as before, which means melodic death metal with a technical edge, but it feels like the band has taken a hughe step forward when it comes to songwriting and arrangements. According to the band themselves they have never before paid as much attention to details in the arrangemens as they did on this album and that has certainly paid off. All elleven tracks on the album are high quality, catchy melodic death metal anthems, well reocorded and produced by the band themselves with mastering duties handed to none other than Mr. Jens Bogren. The nice balance between hard riffing guitars, leads and tasteful keyboard arrangements gives the album a real atmospheric and epic feel. If you go for the limited edition of the album you will get to additional bonus tracks, including a nice cover of Europe´s ´Ninja´. ´Malady X´is definately one to look out for if you like melodic death metal.

Lyrics:
Overcome by distaste
My eyes bleed, turn into black
Abandoned by the gods – left behind
No one wants to realize
We drown ourselves in gloss and shine
Disclaim our virtues for our pride
Me and I, devil-may-care
Future is dead and present means hell
The world turns black
If you like curiosity
Come inside and take your seat
Forget about morality
Just believe!
Welcome to the show
Malady superabounds
Open your eyes and see
The insane reality
This is the world we're living in
Right before the abyss
Malady superabounds
Welcome to the show
A society on burned ground – soaked in blood
Fear thy neighbor, god is dead
We are sick in many ways – countless
No one wants to realize
We gloat over agony – mortal fear
On the wings of the weak we fly
Stitch up my lips and seal them well
If you don't wanna hear the truth
Welcome to the show
Malady superabounds
Open your eyes and see
The insane reality
This is the world we're living in
Right before the abyss
Malady superabounds
Welcome to the show
This world is a cage
No escape
Better not be weak
You can't flee
This is the world we're living in
Right before the abyss
Welcome to the show
It's better to forego
Open your eyes and see
This is reality
Open your eyes and see
Malady!
